A hospital where a girl bled to death has refused to publish the findings of its inquiry for fear of "endangering the mental health" of staff.
Victoria Harrison, 17, was found dead the day after an appendix operation at Kettering General Hospital in 2012.
Coroner Ann Pember later criticised the hospital over missed opportunities.
The hospital subsequently conducted a serious incident investigation but has revealed it will not be making the full report public despite an FoI request.
It claimed putting some of its findings into the public domain would risk staff identifying colleagues, who would then be put under "additional stress and pressure in addition to that already experienced during the investigation and inquest".
